On the commentary desk, the Haier brothers chatted about tonight's showdown before the game.

RNG, especially Uzi, is no stranger to KT.

Deft and Mata in the bottom lane, one is an old rival and the other is an old teammate. Pawn in the middle lane, as well as Marin and Uzi in the top lane have also played against each other before.

Facing the shouts of "KT come on" that resounded throughout the audience, the six RNG players on the stage showed no signs of timidity, especially Uzi, who had his hands behind his back and his face was tense, without even a trace of a smile.

"The puppy looks like he wants to eat people today," Miller said excitedly.

"Come on RNG, as long as they beat KT tonight, then we can congratulate LPL in advance for winning its first S championship! I believe Uzi can lead this team to achieve all this!" Wawa also became excited.

After both parties took their seats, the first game began quickly.

The first seed KT had the right to choose the side in the first game, and head coach ZanDarC chose the blue side.

In the first game, KT showed its importance to Uzi. In the first round, all three ban positions were assigned to the bottom lane. Soon, the lineup was formed.

Blue side KT: top laner Kennen, jungler Zac, mid laner Galio, bottom lane cannon                               Lulu

Red square RNG: top laner Ornn, jungler Qinggang Shadow, mid laner Ryze, bottom laner Varus Titan

After the countdown ends, both sides enter the Summoner's Rift.

The red side's RNG chose to invade the blue side's lower half at the beginning, but after Score came out of the spring, it went straight to the blue BUFF, while Deft and Mata stayed in the grass on the bottom lane and had no intention of caring about their own wild areas.

There was no collision between the two sides at the beginning, and Casa's Green Steel Shadow was successfully moved to the jungle.

For RNG, which plays around the bottom lane, this is the rhythm they like.

At 3 minutes and 10 seconds, after Casa cleared the entire lower half, a wave of ganks came from the bottom lane. Xiao Ming flashed the hook and controlled Mata's Lulu. Qinggangying followed up and connected with the hook lock, and Uzi successfully got it.

A blood!

"Beautiful! Casa's gank is so stable!" Miller shouted excitedly.

On the other side, KT's jungler Score also caught the wave, but Xiaohu's reaction was very timely. After Ryze moved to avoid Zach's bear hug, he performed a set of combos to trigger Phase Rush, and accelerated his retreat under the defense tower.

, even the flash was not shown, and the commentators were amazed.

"RNG is in very good shape today. Letme's CS on the top lane is not lagging behind, and the lane fight is no problem!" Wawa praised.

In the early stage, RNG had the dominant rhythm, but KT was originally a team-fighting lineup, so they were not in a hurry.

At six minutes, Score's Zach caught it again. Zach jumped first and knocked away Xiao Ming's Titan, but Casa, who was hiding in the grass behind him, attacked again...

Score's Zach was controlled and absorbed all the skills. Then his health bar was wiped out and turned into four pools of slime.

Smeb, who was on the top lane, quickly handed over TP to protect, but RNG still refused to retreat, forcing Kennen to fall to the bottom lane, and then chose to retreat.

This also caused KT's rhythm to collapse. Letme Ornn, who was on the road, was able to develop safely for nearly a minute.

Kasa then controlled Xiaolong.

For 10 minutes, the two sides started a tug-of-war around the Canyon Pioneer.

Score's Zack once again took the lead, and after forcing out Uzverus's flash, he was controlled by the Chain of Corruption, and was knocked out of his clone again. Pawn's Galio quickly handed over the hero to the stage to save.

Kasa saw the right moment, and after Qinggangying's ultimate move locked Deft's cannon, Letme's Ornn summoned the goat to collide with the cannon again, and Xiao Ming followed suit and locked the cannon with his ultimate move.

Deft had no room for maneuver and was eventually killed by Varus with one arrow.

RNG won a zero-for-two teamfight and controlled the vanguard. Uzi once again gained a kill, and the rhythm completely took off.

Using this vanguard, RNG gained an economic advantage of 5,000 20 minutes ago. Casa's Qinggang Shadow continuously locked Deft's cannon and Smeb's Kennen, causing KT to fail to play a good team.

In the end, at 34 minutes of game time, RNG won the first game with an economic gap of 8,000 after annihilating KT in the Dalong Pit!

"RNG played so beautifully in the first game. I feel like they are in great shape tonight!" Miller smiled from ear to ear.

Wawa nodded repeatedly and said confidently: "If this situation continues, I think there is a real chance of sweeping KT three to zero. Come on, brothers, if we win two more games, we will be the champions!"

In the conference room of the Gwangju Hotel, the entire YM team was also watching the semifinals.

"It feels like something interesting, RNG's first hit was a bit fierce." Xiaotian said in surprise.

"KT isn't that strong either." Lefty was also a little surprised.

Ga frowned and watched silently.

As the No. 1 seed in the LCK and the only remaining player in the region, the outside world has high expectations for KT.

On the one hand, their state in this World Championship is really good enough. They defeated IG twice in the group, and even had nine wins and zero losses before the semi-finals. They were basically crushed in the scene. Many people feel that KT is not weaker than YM.

.

On the other hand, the KT team is also full of legendary LCK players. Not to mention Pawn, Mata, and Marin who have won the S championship, Smeb and Deft are also first-team players in the summer split.

With both heritage and strength, not to mention the aura of the LCK itself, it is natural for him to be regarded as the big BOSS of the World Championship.

But in the semifinals, RNG came up and won the game, which immediately gave people the illusion that KT was just a paper tiger.

But Su Chen and Meng Ma saw some problems.

"Titan, Ornn, and Qinggangying are all given to RNG. I feel like KT is a little too confident." Meng Ma said with a frown.

"Indeed, it doesn't matter if you put them in one position. These three heroes are all RNG's signatures. KT will let them all go." Xiaotian also woke up and re-examined the BP of the first game.

"Confidence is one thing. I think they also want to see which position is the most critical in RNG's system." Su Chen touched his chin and looked at the screen. "In the next game, KT won't have the right to choose sides. Let's see.

Can RNG seize this opportunity?"

After a short break, the players from both sides are about to take the stage.…

In the first game, RNG won the first game without having the right to choose sides.

Now that they have the opportunity to choose sides, their chances of winning will obviously be greater. If they win this game and lead 2-0, they will have a high probability of advancing to the finals and joining up with YM.

Just when fans of the royal family were excited, the director came with a surprising news.

KT chose to change personnel. Smeb in the top lane position took a rest, and Marin was replaced!

Marin, who has not appeared in the entire World Championship, appeared in front of the camera for the first time.

This man, who was praised by Eun Jung, had no sense of nervousness in a crucial game and sat on the stage with a warm smile.

Wawa and Miller were carefully appreciating KT's substitutions.

"Marin played some games in the LCK in the summer split, but he didn't play a single game in the World Championship. No one knows what his condition is."

"But everyone is familiar with his style. He is very good at playing four-point and one-point push. Unlike players like Smeb who are good at team play, Marin's single-lead ability will be stronger."

"It looks like KT is going to break through from the top lane."

In the voice of the commentary, both sides also entered the BP of the second game.

After changing sides, KT's initiative in BP was limited, but they also immediately changed their strategy.

Qinggangying and Ornn were still released, but the three heroes Titan, Kai'Sa, and Xayah were still suppressed to death.

After a game, both parties completed the selection.

Blue square RNG: top laner Ornn, jungler Qinggang Shadow, mid laner Ice Girl, bottom lane small gun  Bron

Red square KT: top laner Sword Girl, mid laner Galio, bottom laner Thresh

In the second game, RNG's lineup was similar to the top one. Xiaohu even got a hero like Ice Girl with a better rhythm, so Wawa and Miller were also confident.

However, KT played a completely different rhythm in the second game.

After Marin's Sword Lady appeared, all of Ornn's potions were replaced before level 4, plus nearly half of his health.

And Xiaohu failed to control Pawn's Galio. KT's middle and jungle level 4 rarely chose to join forces to catch Letme's Ornn, and Marin took the head.

On the other side, Casa still implemented the fixed idea, and Qinggang Ying captured it again. However, Deft's wheel mother was quite stable. After blocking Xiao Mingbron's Q with his shield, he flashed to pick up the lantern and avoided Qinggang Ying's second blow.

Section kick.

Then KT caught the middle and jungle again after level 6. Letme was chased near the second tower, but was still killed. Ornn, who had no TP, lost three waves of lines, and his last hit was completely exploded.

RNG quickly changed lanes and moved the lagging Ornn to the bottom lane.

Then Xiaohu and Kassa caught up again, but Deft was once again protected by Thresh and Galio. At the same time, Score's pig girl used a backhand to start the team.

Instead, RNG let Xiaohu's Ice Girl give away a head.

At the same time, Marin's Sword Lady completed Ornn's tower jump on Letme in the bottom lane. The four flaws were perfectly crushed. After killing Ornn with remaining health, Sword Lady stood in the blood recovery formation and replenished a mouthful of blood.

Pulled out of the defense tower range and was not killed by the chasing attack wave.

"Is this really something a 27-year-old veteran can do? Marin is in great shape!" Miller couldn't help complaining.

Zhongshang died one after another, and after KT easily controlled the vanguard, they also firmly controlled the rhythm of the game.

RNG, which failed to open up the situation in the laning phase, tried to attack Deft's wheel mother many times, but failed.…

Marin's Sword Lady also used the Eye of the Vanguard to demolish two defensive towers on the side of RNG, constantly expanding its advantage over Ornn.

After Xiao Ming couldn't get the Titan, RNG's group start obviously dropped to a lower level, and Xiao Hu's Ice Girl's performance was average.

In the end, KT took advantage of Jian Ji's single belt. After 36 minutes, they won a 4V4 team fight in the middle and leveled RNG's crystal.

"I feel like this RNG is losing to this Sword Girl. Several times I tried to attack the dragon, but Sword Girl forced me to go back to defend. I can't join the team with Letme. The fight was too uncomfortable." Miller

He shook his head repeatedly.
